Five years of fund management exposure in sourcing deals, leading due diligence, and closing investment rounds. My work in Fund Management and Venture Capital led me to create curriculum and workshops for founders and new investors. It's also led to keynote and panel platforms where I discuss barriers to inclusive and innovative investing.
